Revolution 250: Saratoga & Ticonderoga
Celebrate The Revolution’s 250 Anniversary! Visit Saratoga National Historical Park where Benedict Arnold became a hero – then a traitor. Walk with re-enactors at Fort Ticonderoga, from here in 1776 George Washington had cannons moved 200 miles, in the dead of winter, to a hill top above Boston. When Gen Thomas Gage woke the morning of March 4, and saw artillery suddenly aimed at the British fleet, he immediately abandoned City, which they had held since Lexington & Concord.
There are boat cruises and a train ride, horse racing and history. It’s a great group getaway – plan yours now!
250 Years after The Tea Party
The Boston Tea Party occurred on Dec 16, 1773. Come see where it started, visit the Battle Green in Lexington where in 1775 they fired “The shot heard round the world.” Listen to the stories of Paul Revere and the Minutemen as you search for history amongst the skyscrapers.
